Commentary: Quoth the bulletin:
Monica's husband, Patricus, not only came home drunk each day but had a violent tamper & Monica was often the victim of his rage. Patricus was neither a faithful husband & therefore, Monica's life was full of trials.Huh. Odd that the bulletin focuses on Patricus, who repented & converted on his death bed thanks to his wife's years of prayer, & yet does not mention St. Monica's blessed son, the bishop & Doctor of the Church St. Augustine, whose writings are our principal source on her life & virtue.
